When you book a trip with Captain Kevin Lescale, you’re getting more than an activity, you’re in for a fun and memorable experience! Explore the waters in the Crucecita area with a friendly crew that is dedicated to showing you the best time on the waves.

For your angling adventure, you’ll come aboard the “Shark” – their 24’ Imemsa saltwater fisher, rigged with a 70 HP Yamaha engine. The vessel can sit up 5 people. A great advantage of this boat is that it has a ramp which makes it wheelchair accessible, and if there’s a wheelchair on board, up to 4 people can fit nicely and fish in full comfort.

Because you’ll be facing off the giants of the deep, there’s a fighting chair on board to help you bring your prey to the boat. With outriggers to extend your fishing reach, a live bait well, and a fishfinder to take you to the best spots, you’re fully equipped for a successful fishing day.

Capt. Kevin will provide top-of-the-line Penn and Shimano gear that you’ll use to battle your catch, as well as live bait and lures to get its attention. Snorkeling is also an option, but you should let your captain know in advance that you want to do it, and he’ll organize everything for a small additional cost.

On your to-catch list are all the prized fish of the saltwater realm – Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Marlin, and Tuna. You can find them in the local waters all year and if you hook a big one, getting them into the boat will be the ultimate challenge and a thrill.

The crew will clean and fillet whatever you decide to keep, and if you’re happy with their services, tips are always appreciated.

You can come with your family or your fishing buddies, and kids of all ages are welcome too, as long as they’re supervised. All you need for your trip is a fishing license, food, and sunscreen, everything else is taken care of.

Come and enjoy a fully personalized fishing expedition with Shark Boat!

For Captain Kevin Lescale, the sea is his favorite place to be. Not only for the fishing (though it's a big part of it), but also because nothing compares with the peace and quiet that you have when you're on the water. Capt. Kevin has been an avid angler his whole life, and these days, he's equally passionate about passing on his knowledge on to his customers.
